Linguistic Landscapish pictures from Taiwan

The end of summer holidays seems to me like an ideal time to share pictures from the winter. While I was in Taiwan this winter I snapped a few pictures that caught my interest as a beginner in caring about and noticing linguistic landscapes. I figured I’d share some of them here for the fun of it and also because I thought some of the pictures were interesting. All pictures were taken on my Samsung Note 1. No filter. Those interested in something more scholarly can check out this ELT Journal article from earlier in the year. Enjoy!

Interesting mix of languages.

Warning.

Sounds swell.

Some signs including a Korean ginseng store.

Pho Shizzle

Canadaian diner.

The NET and NNET debate rages on.

Does this sound sexual to anyone else?

High quality American imports.

Just landscape.

One of these days I will have to share some pictures from Seoul. Speaking of Seoul, I am aiming to set some students on a mini project to grab some interesting photos of linguistic landscapes around Seoul. I will likely share the results here. If you have had any success with similar projects or have any suggested readings please do get in touch.

Ohh wow nice. Very cool. Thanks for sharing.
Speaking of Facebook, I was just about to add you to this group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/MUrbanLL/ but figured you’d maybe prefer to want to add yourself if you happen to be interested. Thanks so much for reading and commenting and sharing pictures!
